A Choice That Could Define Civilization

Humanity at the Threshold: AI, Power, and the Potential of Civilization examines a future in which artificial general intelligence may reshape work, economics, governance, warfare, and human purpose. Chris Alan Jordan argues that the central question is not simply whether AGI will arrive, but what kind of civilization will be waiting when it does. Through historical patterns, current events, behavioral analysis, possible future scenarios, and practical governance frameworks, the book reveals how humanity can recognize emerging dangers and preserve dignity, autonomy, and democratic control.
